Here is what’s to come!
Winter Wonderland
by Jack Davis
Though the holidays are over
There is still magic in the air
Children play in ice cold snow
That falls in people’s hair
And when the fun is over
When children say their goodbyes
They run inside to warmth
Not knowing what they left behind
They left behind so many things
Like snowmen, snow forts and more
They left a winter wonderland
With snow and ice galore
This is one example of a poem you can write. We will have two poem columns. One
column is for poems that correspond to the monthly theme, and the second will be
poems in general. The example above would go in the first column. Feel free to do both
columns.
